Comment (by jcaputo1 (at) comcast.net):

 Just thought I'd note, this works fine although it can sometimes cause
 your custom menu items to show up in more than one location,
 unintentionally.  Case in point: in the sample file, the "Misc" menu is
 added to a menu called "MAIN".  Under the "Classic" menu theme, this is
 the top-level menu.  Under the "DVR" menu theme, this applies to *both*
 the main menu (mainmenu.xml) and the Utils menu (util_menu.xml), causing
 the 'Misc' menu to show up in both, when I really only wanted it in one.

 The fix would probably be (as suggested in my original post on the ML) to
 enforce name uniqueness on mythmenu container names.  Another extension to
 this could be to add menu theme awareness, so that a user item could be
 placed in different containers depending on the theme in use.

 Nevertheless, it's perfectly serviceable as-is.
